In the conference room of a corporate headquarters? Not entirely feasible.

C.

Then I would go with an air cannon or an actor using a skill saw.

I did a body parts shop once and the actor had a skill saw (bladeless of course) and beating a body part like a leg against the counter. (The room they walked into was dark then the actor would turn on a power strip wich had a stobe light on it with the red film 3/4 of the way inserted for better lighting effects. The red brought out the blood while the remaining 1/4 of the light was white providing a more visible light so they could kinda see what's going on. I also had a head attached to a rope on the ceiling that would swing out and clear their heads by about a foot (but looked like it was going to hit them). While they were destracted by all of this and tended to take a step back there was a drop panel right behind them with an actor in it. That entire set sent people running time and again. :mrgreen:

Funnily enough, the skill saw figures into it. This is for an icon character.
